Lots of potential, not there yet – NOISE Review

Things we need: 1. Better sound organization: I want to make groups of sounds so I don’t have to scroll forever during a live performance 2. Effects controls: I can control effects using my Rise, but I can’t otherwise and the effects choices do not save 3. More tracks and track options: panning is a must, and better abilities to start and stop a loop, easier methods of changing a loops length. Sometimes I accidentally trigger a loop and can’t stop it 4. More quantization control: swing amount, different subdivisions of quantization 5. Inter app audio: don’t understand why this still isn’t a thing 6. Better build quality in the Seaboard block. I’ve played a few mismanufactured boards and the rubber can easily peel off 7. Maybe a sound controls block to bring the Rises effects control to the blocks What I love: 1. Hardware responsiveness: how my phone has less latency with a seaboard and a block than my brand new MacBook Pro is mystifying. 2. The new light block is SUPER rad. Very responsive and expressive. 3. Cheap, dope sounds (for the most part) the SWAM stuff is especially insane although I wish I could make it polyphonic 4. I can use my phone to perform live interesting and expressive electronic music: it changes the game
